Genesis - Integration APIs | Launch Data

The Genesis Integration APIs allow aggregators and applications to query launch data from Genesis token launches. Access metadata through REST endpoints or fetch real-time on-chain state with the SDK.

Base URL

https://api.metaplex.com/v1

Network Selection

By default, the API returns data from Solana mainnet. To query devnet launches instead, add the network query parameter:

?network=solana-devnet

Example:

# Mainnet (default)
curl https://api.metaplex.com/v1/launches/7nE9GvcwsqzYcPUYfm5gxzCKfmPqi68FM7gPaSfG6EQN

# Devnet
curl "https://api.metaplex.com/v1/launches/7nE9GvcwsqzYcPUYfm5gxzCKfmPqi68FM7gPaSfG6EQN?network=solana-devnet"

Authentication

No authentication is required. The API is public with rate limits.

Available Endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Description
`GET`	`/launches/{genesis_pubkey}`	Get launch data by genesis address
`GET`	`/tokens/{mint}`	Get all launches for a token mint
`GET`	`/launches`	List launches with optional filters
`GET`	`/launches?spotlight=true`	Get featured spotlight launches
`POST`	`/launches/create`	Build on-chain transactions for a new launch
`POST`	`/launches/register`	Register a confirmed launch for listing
`CHAIN`	`fetchBucketState`	Fetch bucket state from on-chain
`CHAIN`	`fetchDepositState`	Fetch deposit state from on-chain

The POST endpoints (/launches/create and /launches/register) are used together to create new token launches. For most use cases, the SDK API Client provides a simpler interface that wraps both endpoints.

Error Codes

Code	Description
`400`	Bad request - invalid parameters
`404`	Launch or token not found
`429`	Rate limit exceeded
`500`	Internal server error

Error response format:

{
  "error": {
    "message": "Launch not found"
  }
}
